After a lot of work I got ssh up and running on my xp computer, I put putty on a usb drive and wrote a little batch script to connect (tunnel port 8080, port 80) and the ports are forwarded on a router. I succesfully connected to my home computer using putty of the usb drive on another machine. My problem is that I cannot surf firefox while throught the tunnel, I have socks proxy to local host 8080 but pages wont load, this is frustratig because Im connected and can browse the computer with ssh but I cant surf the net through it. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Are you running a proxy like squid on the ssh server?
You can't use ssh by itself as a socks proxy.

Any community site visitors might want to correctly be blocked or filtered. All an admin desires to entice close is the URL, ip address, and/or port of both source or vacation spot. something is elementary as apple pie. Now, the idea of tunneling is to cover those information and mask the authentic addresses getting used, yet, back, utilising a sniffer, a 1/2-respectable administrator can 'sniff' this stuff out. (And once you're chanced on attempting to circumvent your community's protection, you would possibly want to correctly be expelled, if a pupil, or fired, if an worker. So, why no longer merely study if in college or artwork if at artwork, and do your playtime at homestead?)

In linux its called "forward X11", this allows gui apps remotley.
In win ssh depends on what version you have, this may help:
